Legs and lungs are screaming, but for good reason

I've got a little work left to do to get myself into what I consider mountain shape. I have been getting in 2 miles a day and running the stands (aka snakes) at the football stadium. I'm almost ready to go 3 miles at a time again. Getting there! The Backyarder Camp will be in Colorado come this July for some well deserved fun time. I have big dreams I'm chasing on this go round'...

One of them is to make it up the Manitou Incline under 45 minutes. I think that would be a good time to try for considering what the Incline is. The next mission will be to hump it out up to Barr Camp on Barr Trail, going up the trail to Pike's Peak. I know I cannot make it to the summit of Pike's Peak. I'm not dumb. But, I'm fairly sure of my abilities in that I can make it to the Barr Camp.There are many other trails that are close to where we are staying and I intend to make several of those as well. I cannot wait to get there. It'll be nice to get a break from this damned Texas humidity. We will go and we will conquer.

Getting in shape for your hike is a good idea, but ENJOY the sights and experience as well. Whats the point of getting there in record time if you miss seeing something amazing. Its why I quit riding bikes in the wild, I was watching the road instead of enjoying what I was riding through.

I totally get getting out of the humidity - Gah, I hate summer temperatures. Have a great time in the mountains - I'm jealous as hell!

Anon, I do enjoy the sights there. In fact, almost every morning we are there, we usually hit one of the tallest rocks around and sit up there to drink coffee and bullshit until the sun comes up. I've often gotten the feeling that I could just walk off into the mountains to never be heard from again, and be just fine with it. It's such a beautiful place to sit and soak up. I feel like I've left part of my soul there that I need to go back and find.

There are new things going on all over the place in response to the FaceBook Fuckery Liberals censoring and shutting down legit gun busine...

The Matrix is everywhere...

It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work… when you go to church… when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

“What truth?” asks Neo.

Morpheus leans in closer to Neo: “That you are a slave, Neo... Like everyone else, you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind.”
